The TE MonoPlug 1-2232890-5 is a 5-position receptacle that takes discrete 22-24 AWG wires terminated with an IDC connection. It's the female half that mates to a PCB-mounted header, with a latch lock to hold the pair together in a vibration-prone harness. Tin plating on the female blade socket contacts keeps cost down for applications that don't need the cycle life of gold — think internal appliance wiring, LED lighting harnesses, or control panel jumpers where the connector mates once and stays put.
IDC termination means you strip the wire, lay it in the slot, and press the contact down — the insulation is displaced by the metal tines. No crimp tool, no separate terminal to inventory. The 22-24 AWG range covers common signal and low-power wiring; 24 AWG is typical for sensor leads, 22 AWG for a short power tap.
If the BOM calls for more than 5 circuits, the MonoPlug family includes a 7-position (1-2232890-7) and a 9-position (1-2232890-9) variant at the same 0.098" pitch, same IDC termination, same latch lock. The 3-position version (1-2232890-3) ships in a tube instead of a tray, but the rest of the spec is identical — useful for a low-count signal tap where you don't want to buy a full tray of 5-position parts.
